1977 Porsche 911S with 3.2 L Carrera Motor professionally installed. This is a great little driver and well cared for and stored indoors. Very rare color combination with yellow on black and I was told this was originally a california car and spent most of its life there but I did not confirm. Has a great sound and should with the expensive exhaust. I hate to sell it and have realized recently as I have sold a couple of items from my collection that what I call my habit (collecting older cars) my wife is proving is more of an addiction. It seems like now that I have decided to part with a couple I have spent more time driving them and just sitting behind the wheel. This is the newest car I have and need to make room for an old 60's 911S I have been working on for years that is coming available. I reluctantly agreed if I move any cars in I need to move one out. I think a better solution would be to buy more lifts to double up my space but lost that battle.
The paint is in great shape and most little chips were immediately touched up. There are no major dents/scratches. The worst is the irritating tiny impressions on the deck lid over the engine area where people are not careful pushing down and latching it. Most dont notice unless I point it out. Drives tight and does not rattle/shake on bumps/manholes etc. Leather is great. Headliner is great (missing visors). Tires are in great shape and has expensive upgraded tires/wheels like new. It is really a blast to drive and surely turns heads. If you have not priced converting the engine/tranny it is nearly $15k with labor so all the expensive work has been done. If a couple of the knick knack things bug you lets work it out and get them fixed if needed before purchase.
I recently had it in to a Porsche specialty shop for inspection and oil change/filter change. I had him do a leak down and compression test and passed with flying colors with all cylinders under 5% so motor is great shape. For a 36 year old car it is in great shape. It does have a few little knick knacks that need fixing if you want it perfect. For example the cable to gas door broke and I use a cable with a loop on end (needs knob w/cable $10-$20 on ebay.) The worst thing to me is the speedo/tach guages are not working (mileage is stuck between 120-130 so I put 130k. The shift linkage could be gone through but shifts fine, just not tight. Lights all work. It seems the color of yellow is the more popular color. I know there are things I forgot to include so please feel free to call 8OI647IOI2 with any questions or additional pics needed. I will also try to post a youtube video of the car running/driving...dont think they allow links so may copy/paste it in youtube to watch (Im not too tech savvy).
If you need a shipping quote, I happen to work in the freight business. And although my company does not do auto transport, I do have connections to some good transport companies and brokers and can get you quotes and will be very helpful to load (take pics of vehicle loading etc.) and make sure that goes smoothly. Will be happy to ship internationally also and have title in hand etc. so should be smooth. A general guestimate would be $500 to west coast, $800 give or take to midwest, and $1100 or so to East. Couple thousand or more to some countries but would need specifics to get more accurate. If you would like to have car inspected or inspect yourself I'll help in any way I can. I do have the car listed locally for sale or trade for something interesting and have had some decent offers. I reserve the right to end auction early if the right local offer/trade presents itself. Car is sold as is and because of its age can not offer warranty.
I will be involved with scout camp during the week of the 16th-20th with limited phone service . I have the title in hand with no liens and clean and clear title. I know there will be several questions to answer so please feel free to contact me with any questions at 8OI647IOI2. If your feedback is less than ten positive please do speak with me. I have sold a couple other cars this year worth many more times this one and have had very good luck with great buyers but in the past I have had issues with those not willing to follow through so please bid with confidence as I have made every opportunity available. Thank you.
Here is the info to copy/paste to see youtube video running driving http://youtu.be/uPWnoR8zioQ
Evidently the previous buyer did not have his financials in order and I do not want to wait for him. Also for those not familiar with the "Make Offer" button on a buy it now auction, when you click make offer be prepared to make deposit and complete the purchase. If the offer is accepted it is just the same as clicking buy it now and it will end the auction "if accepted." I mentioned I will be in the mountains with limited phone (and hardly any email except on tuesday when we drive to civilization for the day) during this week but will have my wife check emails etc. If any extra pics needed or to see in person or come drive etc. I have my brothers that live nearby and my wife can make arrangements to help on anything you need so please email/call etc. and we will get your questions answered etc. Bid with confidence as this is a great car. Thank you again.

If we learned nothing else from our recent frolic through Porsche's secret museum, it's that the automaker goes to incredible lengths to disguise future products during initial testing. Just as a number of cars in that Stuttgart bunker hid the true identity of developmental mules (like the Audi-V8-powered 911), such could very well be the case with these spy shots showing what, on the surface, appears to be simply a facelifted 991 911 Cabriolet.
Similar to what we saw last month on a 911 coupe, this Cabriolet has obvious styling modifications made to the front and rear fascias suggesting that the 911's still-fresh appearance is already set to get a few tweaks. The big news here is at the rear of the car. The additional vents on the lower edge of the fascia and the mocked-up vent above the engine leads our spy photographer to believe that a new engine could be tucked under the body work - likely a smaller-displacement, turbocharged flat-six focusing more on improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions rather than performance.
We last heard rumblings of such a detuned 911 back in August, but could this be our first look at said new model? Have a look for yourself, and let us know what you think - either about this mule specifically or the idea of a "green" 911, in Comments below.

We might be looking at the end of an era in European performance models. Mercedes-Benz is doing away with the SLS in favor of a rumored smaller and cheaper SLC, and Porsche has said that a new 911 GT2 isn't necessarily a sure thing, which means another 911 GT2 RS is even farther away. In its latest video, Evo's Jethro Bovingdon pits the ultimate versions of these German sports coupes against each other and finds two of the fastest cars the magazine has ever lapped around its track.
In one corner, there is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series that sits as the pinnacle of the company's halo model. It relies on the classic setup of a V8 mounted in front powering the rear wheels. On the other side, there is the 911 GT2 RS with a turbocharged flat-six mounted at the back, spinning the rear wheels. It was conceived to be Porsche's ultimate expression of a turbocharged 911, and while it's a few years old, Bovingdon shows that it's up to the task of racing a more modern rival.
Both of these rear-wheel-drive monsters are more than capable of some fantastically smoky power-slides, but they also show how great the last generation of sports cars was. Scroll down to check out the video.

Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
